Why l-dsinc changed missionary support policy

[_Joseph]

In Davis,(a Supreme Court case) the Court held that
support payments made by parents directly to their
missionary children were not deductible as charitable
contributions for federal income tax purpose.
Subsequently, the Church’s system for funding
missionary service of young single elders and sisters
was changed, and the Internal Revenue Service
announced that uniform contributions by parents to ward
missionary funds–where such contributions are pooled
and redistributed in different amounts depending on
local cost–would be deductible

Can't contribute just to be faithful, gotta have tax deductions. No wonder l-dsinc has so many lawyers.
